John Craxton, R.A. (1922-2009)

The present work dates from the period when John Craxton was often a guest in the house of the painter Niko Ghika, on the Greek island of Hydra. Over that time Patrick Leigh Fermor stayed for almost two years writing Mani: Travels in the Southern Peloponnese, the cover of which is designed by Craxton.
